Chapter 155 The New Guard

After Yang Xuan left, life passed slowly. Although it can't be said that life is like a year, it is almost the same in Zhao Shuang's place.

Fortunately, there is a thousand-mile sound-transmitting mirror, and I can talk to Yang Xuan about what happened during the day every night, but there is nothing wrong with her. She has nothing to do all day long, only eats, drinks and feeds regularly every day, and occasionally studies chess games.

It was dark, and the light in the bedroom was dim.

A woman in a cherry-pink embroidered gold-embroidered dress is sitting on a soft couch in front of the window and dozing, with a game of chess in front of her.

"Princess, do you want to pass the meal?" Xiangxia deliberately woke her up while lighting the lamp, fearing that she would just fall asleep like this.

"Well," Zhao Shuang raised his head, and it took him a while to come back to his senses, and murmured, "Pass."

Normally, Yang Xuan spread meals, set up a small table, and invited her to eat, but today he was not here, and she slept so late.

Xiangxia went out and ordered the little maid to pass on the meal, then came in and said, "Princess, just now... Grandma Wu came and said that... Xiulan and Xiumu have been living in the wing room, which is not in accordance with the rules of the house."

Then Zhao Shuang remembered those two barbarians, and said to Xiangxia, "Go and call Xiulan and Xiumu, I have something to ask them."

"Yes." Xiangxia exited the room, and brought two thin young men up after a while.

Xiulan and Xiumu knew that they had made a mistake, they hid in their rooms for the past two days and dared not come out, holding their slave status deeds in their hands, but hesitated to leave Xu's house.

The little maids were preparing a meal, and when they turned their heads and saw the two Xilu teenagers, they froze, their eyes full of disgust and jealousy.

These maidservants are also slaves of the Xu family. They know that Xiulan and Xiumu used to be archers in the Xilu clan, and they have hurt many of their fellow clansmen. the master's body.

Zhao Shuang held the chopsticks but had no appetite, so she put down the bowls and chopsticks, picked up a piece of bergamot pear, took a bite, and looked at the two kneeling teenagers, "Have you thought about it these two days? Do you want to go or stay? make a decision."

Xiumu turned her head to glance at Xiulan, then looked up at the woman in the cherry pink dress, and replied carefully, "Back to the princess, slave and sister... decided to stay."

"The bond of slavery was given to you, why don't you run away?" Zhao Shuang ate the bergamot pear and looked at the girl in the khaki dress, "Could it be that...you still want to wait for the prince to come back?"

As soon as these words came out, Xiangxia and the maidservants next to her stared at the girl who was kneeling with her head bowed like a thief.

The concubine's words have already reached this point, and her disgust is beyond words. If she still knows herself, she should get out of the Xu family and stop appearing in front of the concubine.

"I don't dare," Xiulan raised her head slowly, with tears in her eyes, "Princess, I really know that I'm wrong, I just want to stay by Wangfei's side and be a court lady!"

"You are a barbarian woman, what kind of court lady are you?" Zhao Shuang wiped her hands with a handkerchief after eating the fruit, picked up another bun, and took a bite.

During this period of time, she ate a lot, gained a lot of weight, and saw her belly getting rounder and rounder.

"My servant and my elder brother have no relatives and no reason in the Great Zhou Dynasty. I beg the princess to take me in!" The girl in the khaki dress became anxious, and began to talk about her own advantages, "I can boil water for cooking, and raise chickens to feed pigs!"

Zhao Shuang drank the plum juice and said with distaste, "The maids of this palace don't need to boil water for cooking, nor do they need to raise chickens to feed pigs, and they don't need to seduce people."

"Slave..." Xiulan knew that she had really touched the concubine's scales this time, desperately searching her mind for other skills that she could use, but she couldn't think of anything, so she could only bow her head on the ground and say, "Slaves are willing to do anything!"

Zhao Shuang raised his head and looked at the deep night outside the window, with the wind and clouds rolling in the sky. He suddenly turned his eyes, then turned his head to look at the two small figures on the ground and said, "You two know how to bow and arrow?"

"Back to the princess, yes!" Xiumu and Xiulan raised their heads abruptly, and replied one after another.

"Can you ride and shoot?"

"Back to the princess, yes!" Xiu Mu hurriedly took a step forward, holding fists, eyes flashing with excitement, "Nu and sister used to be the pioneer hunters in the clan!"

As soon as these words came out, the two little maids next to her clenched their fists, feeling a sudden hatred.

Zhao Shuang caught the little maid's anger, and knew what Xiumu said was true. They probably hunted and killed many foreigners in the Xilu tribe before.

"Oh?" Zhao Shuang narrowed his eyes and looked at the two teenagers on the ground. He could vaguely see the muscles on their arms and waist, and asked with a raised eyebrow, "Since you are good at it, how can you be bullied in the slave room?" ?”

"Go back to the princess, in the slave room...they are numerous and powerful," Xiumu explained, with mist in his eyes, "often ganging up to bully us...Princess, you are so kind, you didn't let us go back these days, I know that you are a kind master..."

"Don't think that I will keep you if you say a few nice words," Zhao Shuang finished drinking the plum juice, took the porridge, observed the two teenagers through the edge of the white porcelain bowl, and asked lightly, "Can you Are you willing... to be a bodyguard by Bengong's side?"

The girl in the khaki dress nodded when she heard the words, "I am willing! I swear, I will protect the safety of the princess!"

"You can burn that bond of slavery," Zhao Shuang drank a few mouthfuls of porridge, asked the little maids to clean up the table, and said to the maids, "Go back and tell your clansmen, Xiulan He Xiumu will follow Bengong from now on, whoever dares to bully them again will be the enemy of Bengong."

"Slaves dare not!" The two little servant girls hurriedly knelt down and responded.

Zhao Shuang waved his hand, and the little maids retreated out with the finished cups and plates.

"What were your names in the clan...?" Zhao Shuang leaned on the big welcoming pillow and stroked her belly.

"The slave's name is Hulan!"

"The slave's name is Humu!"

The two teenagers clasped their fists together.

"From now on, I will call you by your original names." After Zhao Shuang finished speaking, she directed to the maid beside her, "Xiangxia, take them to see Mingjing later, and say they are the new guards hired by the palace. Put on the clothes of Habayashi Wei for them."

"Thank you, Princess!" The two barbarian teenagers bowed their hands together.

After destroying the bond of slavery and becoming the princess' guard, in the future... no one will dare to bully me again!

"Yes." Xiangxia replied, and then led the two boys back.

Chuzhou City is like spring all the year round, and I don't know how long it has passed. Zhao Shuang only feels that her stomach is gradually swollen, and her movements are somewhat inconvenient.

That night, the lights in the main house were like beans, and the atmosphere was warm.

Two women were sitting in front of the table, drinking tea and gossiping about family affairs.

After Xu Bao and Bing Ji left, Yang Xuan also left, and Zhao Shuang stayed in Xu's house alone. Now the only person who can talk is Rong.

"Lianyu finally got the hang of it this time," Rong waved the handkerchief in his hand, grinning from ear to ear, "After all, I have to thank Wangfei for your reminder that day, otherwise Lianyu would not It will be discovered so quickly that the former Mrs. Li's death was related to that Aunt Feng. Good and evil will always be rewarded."

"Poisoning the wife to death is not a trivial matter, what does Li Daochong plan to do with that Feng Ruqiu?" Zhao Shuang lightly lifted the tea cover.
